Topic 1 Β· Question 138

A company has 10 web server Amazon EC2 instances that run in an Auto Scaling group in a production VPC. The company has 10 other web servers that run in an on-premises data center. The company has a 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection between the on-premises data center and the production VPC. The company needs to implement a load balancing solution that receives HTTPS traffic from thousands of external users. The solution must distribute the traffic across the web servers on AWS and the web servers in the on-premises data center. Regardless of the location of the web servers, HTTPS requests must go to the same web server throughout the entire session. Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • ACreate a Network Load Balancer (NLB) in the production VPC. Create a target group. Specify ip as the target type. Register the EC2 instances and the on-premises servers with the target group Enable connection draining on the NLB
  • BCreate an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in the production VPC. Create a target group Specify ip as the target type. Register the EC2 instances and the on-premises servers with the target group. Enable application-based session affinity (sticky sessions) on the ALB. (correct answer)
  • CCreate a Network Load Balancer (NLB) in the production VPCreate a target group. Specify instance as the target type. Register the EC2 instances and the on-premises servers with the target group. Enable session affinity (sticky sessions) on the NLB.
  • DCreate an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in the production VPC. Create a target group. Specify instance as the target type Register the EC2 instances and the on-premises servers with the target group Enable application-based session affinity (sticky sessions) on the ALB.
Reveal answer & explanation

A company has an AWS environment that includes multiple VPCs that are connected by a transit gateway. The company has decided to use AWS Site-to-Site VPN to establish connectivity between its on-premises network and its AWS environment. The company does not have a static public IP address for its on-premises network. A network engineer must implement a solution to initiate the VPN connection on the AWS side of the connection for traffic from the AWS environment to the on-premises network. Which combination of steps should the network engineer take to establish VPN connectivity between the transit gateway and the on-premises network? (Choose three.)

  • AConfigure the Site-to-Site VPN tunnel options to use Internet Key Exchange version 1 (IKEv1).
  • BConfigure the Site-to-Site VPN tunnel options to use Internet Key Exchange version 2 (IKEv2). (correct answer)
  • CUse a private certificate authority (CA) from AWS Private Certificate Authority to create a certificate. (correct answer)
  • DUse a public certificate authority (CA) from AWS Private Certificate Authority to create a certificate.
  • ECreate a customer gateway. Specify the current dynamic IP address of the customer gateway device’s external interface.
  • FCreate a customer gateway without specifying the IP address of the customer gateway device. (correct answer)

A company's AWS environment has two VPCs. VPC A has a CIDR block of 192.168.0.0/16. VPC B has a CIDR block of 10.0.0.0/16. Each VPC is deployed in a separate AWS Region. The company has remote users who work outside the company's offices. These users need to connect to an application that is running in the VPCs. Traffic to and from the VPCs over the internet must be encrypted. A network engineer must set up connectivity between the remote users and the VPCs. Which combination of steps should the network engineer take to meet these requirements with the LEAST management overhead? (Choose three.)

  • AEstablish an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection between VPC A and VPC B.
  • BEstablish a VPC peering connection between VPC A and VPC B. (correct answer)
  • CCreate an AWS Client VPN endpoint in VPC A and VPC B Add an authorization rule to grant access to VPC A and VPC B.
  • DCreate an AWS Client VPN endpoint in VPC A Add an authorization rule to grant access to VPC A and VPC B. (correct answer)
  • EAdd a route to the AWS Client VPN endpoint’s route table to direct traffic to VPC B. (correct answer)
  • FAdd a route to the AWS Client VPN endpoint's route table to direct traffic to VPC A.
